Quick response, i will address the full posting later.
Behe's ID and that of others suggests time after time that
ID shows evidence of a design and a (supernatural) designer.
If the argument of ID is that the use of metaphorical language
can help us describe and understand science better then that's
fine with me. But I don't think that too many ID'ers would
appreciate that conclusion.
However is such a use of metaphorical language evidence of
design ? Of course not.
The reason I am so skeptic of ID is the (ab)use of it to
pretend the existence of evidence (i.e. data observable to us and
quantifiable) of supernatural design in nature.
